Background & Aims: Diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases asssociated with psychological problems, especially anger. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of anger management training on happiness, quality of life, and blood sugar in diabetic patients in Kermanshah. Materials & Methods: The design of the present study is quasi-experimental and of the pretest-posttest type with a control group. The statistical population of the study involved all the diabetic patients in Kermanshah in 2019, among which 40 people were selected by Cluster sampling method and placed in two experimental and control groups, each involving 20 participants. The research instruments included Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHOQL-26), Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (1990), and fasting blood sugar test. Taking medications prescribed was not eliminated or reduced in patients at all. Anger management training was performed on the experimental group over 10 sessions. The control group did not receive any training, but the tests were performed as pre-test and post-test on both groups. The results were analyzed using SPSS software, and after confirming the normality of the data, the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) test was used to check the mean difference between the groups. Results: The results showed that anger management training in diabetic patients can increase happiness and improve quality of life and also reduce and control the blood sugar levels, which was statistically meaningful between between pre-test and post-test in the experimental group. Conclusion: Anger management trainings can increase happiness and quality of life and control blood sugar in diabetics. Therefore it is suggested that be used in diabetes treatment centers along with medication to enhance and ameliorate treatment outcomes.
